Yngwie shreads, too bad he is such a clown, and has lost the respect of almost everyone in the Rock/metal community. Well, as a person at least...but as a guitar player, everyone shuold still bow down to him.

Hey buddy, Yngwie Malmsteen is a better guitar player that any of the Axemen that you listen to. Show some respect....(even if he IS a fat mess now, he can still rip like none-other)

That's interesting, when Ministry played in Toronto, it was a sold out show of about 2500 people.

Yeah, Ministry Played 2 shows in Vancouver at the Commodore Ballroom, and the first night was sold out, and not sure about the 2nd, but if it didnt sell out, it must have been damn near close.

1) Yngwie isn't fat. Have any of you seen recent pictures of him or do you just not know what fat is?

2) Are you people this dumb? I hate Ill Nino but NO band is going to fucking get high numbers in New Orleans anymore. Jesus christ you people all need to be tourtured to death.

Forget recent pictures, I saw him live about a year and a half ago and he is definatly over weight.
Im not knocking the guy, cuz im a huge fan, I just felt the need to respond to your comment.
Plus he is also a mess, he always has been, he now claims he has quit drinking, but Im not sure if I believe that...

Here, check out this one, its a little more Up-to-date.
http://www.danceage.com/gallery/data/media/783/030604_yngwie_live_0143.jpg
Note the double chin... He looks nothing like the pic on the inside of the unleash the fury cd.
When I bought that disk, I laughed my ass off at that photo, it was one of the first things I noticed, its like a archived shot from 1994 or something...
anyways, YNGWIE DESTROYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

John petrucci pWns Yngwie Malmsteen any fucking day of the week, so did dimebag till he passed away
my grandma plays better than Yngwie and she's blind

thats pretty funny. Obviously he isnt the best there is, but hes better than 97% of 'em.
and yes, Petrucci does rock, aswell as Dime, how 'bout we add more? Steve Morse, Steve Vai, Buckethead, Derek Trucks, Alvin Lee etc...
I was just getting the point across that he isnt a nobody, and his classical/metal style is amazing, and his finger speed is unmatched. (and before you say it..i know...i know, finger speed is not all there is to a great guitar player.......but it helps.)

Ill nino fuckin sucks, their music is SOOO annoying...sometimes they pull off some sick breakdowns, but as soon as that dude starts singing, I swear to myself once again that I'll never give them another chance.....I do like ministry...Hahahaha, Jackyl....they are too easy......and Godsmack is so boring, I can't stand it...maybe I should send them a nasty email.....And Disturbed is the worst live band on the planet....

because at the end of the day, I couldn't care less about looks, but he doesn't look fat at all in that picture.

You want fat? Look at Jon Oliva or Michael Romeo

@ the total fucking idiot who said Dimebag is better than Yngwie Malmsteen.


Yngwie Malmsteen re-invented a form of music. Dimebag just re-hashed the same pentatonic blues shit over and over again like Zakk Wylde. He fucking sucked. I know people who haven't even been playing a year that can play Dime's shitty ass solos.

If they couldn't get big at the height of nu-metal, they never will.

Ok live band, but the music sucks. Static-X blew them away.

"I heard Jeff Healy's dog plays the tricky parts."

I can't believe anyone would part with some of their hard-earned $ to go see Jackyl.
